The Chronological Classics: Jimmie Lunceford and His Orchestra 1945-1947

Album by Jimmie Lunceford and His Orchestra

The Chronological Classics: Jimmie Lunceford and His Orchestra 1945-1947 is a compilation album by Jimmie Lunceford and His Orchestra collecting recordings made between 1945 and 1947. These tracks present the orchestra's big-band swing sound, characterised by arranged horn sections, rhythmic drive and polished ensemble playing, and document the group's later-period style as swing-era bands adapted to the post-war musical landscape.
